The Leader Board

How to plan for, attract, develop and retain great performers

Welcome to the first issue of The Leader Board. We want to regularly share with you important learnings we’ve gathered as we’ve delivered leadership advisory services to our clients.

You might think of Cochran, Cochran and Yale only when you have a pressing hiring need. When a key position needs to be filled. The truth is, you’ll see the most value from our services when you engage us throughout the year to strategically plan your Human Resources and proactively attract, develop and retain the group of professionals that will take your business where it needs to go. Think of us when you need an individual that matches your corporate culture. When a critical employee needs guidance. Or when an exiting team needs help landing on their feet.

Succession Planning—to identify and then prepare the next generation of leadership for a smooth transition that maintains productivity and morale.

Career Transition Support—to provide a positive, result-focused experience for exiting employees through one-on-one coaching, state-of-the-art technology and the more than 35 years of trusted career management experience of our professionals.

Attract

Hiring top talent is probably one of the greatest challenges you face. But people are what fuel every company’s performance, innovation and growth. CCY can help identify talent that matches your corporate culture, elevate your business in their minds, and keep them focused on you throughout their search.

To attract the best talent to your company, CCY services include:

Executive Search—to attract the right executives by leveraging critical market data and more than 35 years of proven experience with an 83% stay rate after 4 years.

Executive On Boarding—to reduce the learning curve, increase the tenure of new executives and strengthen your return on investment in the hiring process.

Develop

You don’t keep your financial resources in a mattress. You invest them or keep them where they will grow. The same should be true of your human resources. Develop them so they can help you achieve your business objectives and most promising opportunities for growth.

Professional Assessment—to understand the key strengths and weaknesses of employees using a variety of validated and actionable assessment tools and planning the path to maximizing each employee’s effectiveness.

Culture Development—to build a positive and lasting environment that employees love and supports your business. It’s as important today as salary and benefits.
